What We Do

• Calls-For-Action

  When critical issues arise, your Realtor® associations may call on you to contact your elected officials and advocate the industry position. Using current technology, participating in a Call-For-Action takes a few clicks and a few seconds of your time but makes an enormous difference in our advocacy efforts

• Events With Elected Officials

  NVAR offers several opportunities to meet elected officials in person. Join fellow NVAR members on the Legislative Trip for a day of lobbying in Richmond. Mingle with state and local officials at the Legislative Reception.  Hear from a top political analyst  over breakfast with our federal, state and local representatives at Politics and Pancakes. Focus on the issues impacting your neighborhood with our local Town Hall events.

• Legislative Updates

  NVAR’s Town Hall Notes newsletter is devoted entirely to public policy issues and news at the federal, state and local levels. It is delivered regulary to your inbox so you will always be current on the industry’s news and legislative developments.

• NV-RPAC Campaign Committee

  Our lobbying and advocacy efforts are aided by knowledgeable elected officials who understand you and your business. The Northern Virginia/Realtors® Political Action Committee helps us elect and keep Realtor®-friendly candidates in office. It also helps us promote the issues Realtors® care about. Members of the NV/RPAC Campaign Committee help educate the association membership on the candidates and issues, and raise funds for NV/RPAC to use in these efforts

• Public Policy Committee

  The Public Policy Committee meets monthly to discuss current issues and recommend policy positions to NVAR’s Board of Directors. The committee will regularly invite elected officials and policy experts to address the Committee on issues affecting the industry or the region.

• Public Policy Forums

  NVAR regularly schedules Policy Forums on topics of interest in the region. From real estate sign regulations to the latest redevelopment proposals, we want you to be informed.
